How to Style a Faux Leather Leggings Outfit For Your 40+ Lifestyle
Are you looking for a way to wear faux leather leggings that work for your 40+ lifestyle? Here’s how to create a Faux leather leggings outfit that is casual and practical.
1. Think Sporty
There are many ways to wear faux leather leggings, ranging from wildly rock n’ roll to seriously high fashion, but if you are a mature gal with a laid-back lifestyle, a sporty look works really well. Think energetic, fun, and practical.
2. Start With High-Quality Leggings
A sporty leggings outfit starts with high-quality faux leather leggings. My favorite brand is Spanx. Their faux leather leggings have a high-power waistband, so there’s no muffin top. They’re wide and contoured to flatten your stomach and give you a perky bottom. These leggings are the perfect thickness—not too thin or too thick—and really hold their shape.
3. Pair Leggings with a Tunic Sweater
For a sporty fall look, pair your leggings with a long tunic sweater in a deep, rich fall color.
This gorgeous burgundy knit tunic is stunning against these dark leggings and creates a warm, cozy, casual vibe. The cute, snap-up side slits make it playful and sporty.
4. Wear Statement Sneakers
Heeled booties with faux leather leggings are great for a sexy look, but most of the time, you want to be comfy. Keep your feet happy with a pair of fabulous statement sneakers.
These metallic snake print ones by Cole Haan are so chic. They are comfy and have a slight sheen, which works well with the subtle sheen on the leggings.
5. Push Up Your Sleeves
You can push up your sweater’s sleeves for a more energetic and youthful look to expose some forearms.
6. Add Sunglasses
Remember, a pair of cool sunglasses! These are from Quay Australia, a new brand I’ve discovered that has fabulous sunglasses at reasonable prices. I love the gradient lenses and the subtle gold glitter finish!
7. Wear Minimal Jewelry
A sporty look is simple and casual. Keep jewelry to a minimum. What a cute outfit for running errands or working from home!
This faux leggings outfit is easy to wear. It’s modern and edgy but practical, too, and a great way to look sporty and chic!
Thank you so much for this post, as I am waiting for my faux leather leggings from the Nordstrom sale. Wasn’t I sure about tunics being a rectangle body type?
Great Cindy. They should look fabulous. Just wear a long top. You can post a photo in my private Facebook group! I’d love to see you in them. The link to join is here:https://www.facebook.com/groups/814404065437397/?ref=pages_group_cta.
